Our passion for extra virgin olive oil was born when, as children, we experienced the olive harvest period as a moment of celebration shared with our families. The days spent outdoors in the midst of nature, work experienced as a moment of sharing, the taste of snacks in the shade of the olive trees, these are the dearest postcards of our childhood.

Coming into contact with this world from an early age was also a natural consequence of the fact that San Sperate is located near to the area which, in southern Sardinia, is most representative of the oil production: Parteolla, from the Latin “Pars Olea”. An agricultural area whose hills have always been an ideal habitat for olive trees, and with which San Sperate shares the culture and tradition of the production of extra virgin olive oil. Although not part of the Curatoria of Dolia (San Sperate was historically included in the Curatoria of Decimo), our town has always been linked to the rites of the olive harvest, thanks to a geography similar to that of Parteolla which makes the area ideal for this type of cultivation.

We then embarked on different academic and professional paths, but in our hearts we always felt the strong call of the earth, of the plants and of that oil that has always given flavor to our lives. Driven by the desire to deepen our knowledge of the world of oil, Sandalia was born. A name that is already the manifesto of our vision: we want to leave our mark on the extra virgin olive oil market, with roots firmly rooted in our land, San Sperate, looking with respect to centuries-old tradition but open to innovation, in the techniques and processes, to enhance the organoleptic and qualitative characteristics of our oil.
